Answer: Blood Pythons (Python brongersmai) are a heavy-bodied python found throughout most of the lower elevations of peninsular Malaysia, southwestern Thailand, Sumatra east of the central dividing range of mountains, Bangka Island and other islands in the Straits of Malacca. Most adult female blood pythons measure between 50 inches to 66 inches in length, while adult male blood pythons are 40 inches to 56 inches in length. Blood pythons are commonly encountered in low, forested hills and the various types of plantations that are located in the upland areas surrounding lower and wetter habitats, where they feed on rodents and birds. Blood pythons are truly gorgeous snakes that derive their name from their color ... not their aptitude for drawing your blood!
